Good overview of the island

3.00The operator was 30 minutes late with no communication, which was frustrating. We went long which was okay with our schedule, but could have been an issue. We did enjoy the beauty of the island, and the guide was so-so, not bad, not great.
Just OK

4.00This tour involves some hiking, so if you have trouble hiking on ruff terrain for 15 minutes or so you won’t like this one. We had several stops and one was a gift shop outdoor market by locals. It was very hot on the day we went.
Very good explanations of Nono both on the origins of the Tahitian people and on the landscapes of relief, and the current daily life

5.00Beautiful discovery of Bora-Bora, in 4x4, thanks to Nono and the sharing of his knowledge. We were, as a family (8 adults and a 2-year-old). Nono was very attentive to each of us and did our best to make our family have a great time. We enjoyed the Tahitian music he played at the 1st stop. We discovered beautiful viewpoints, but also a craft pareo factory and also the history and fruits of Bora-Bora. Nono knew how to make this tour of the island an excellent very rewarding moment. Many thanks to him for making himself available that day.
Very good journey

5.00Mana was an absolutely incredible tour guide and truly made our Bora Bora experience unforgettable. He showed us so much more than just the views — he brought the island’s culture to life. We learned about local traditions, history, and daily life in such a fascinating and authentic way. One of the highlights was trying the original stevia plant straight from the woods — such a cool and unique experience! He also took us to an extraordinary viewpoint overlooking the city that was breathtaking. Along the way, Mana recommended amazing local foods and shared stories about his culture that made everything feel so personal and meaningful. Our favorite stop was seeing the World War II cannons. It’s about a 15-minute hike, but completely worth it for the history and the views. What made the day even more special was meeting so many locals — Mana seems to know everyone! His friends generously shared fresh guavas, avocados, and mangos with us, which made the experience feel warm, genuine, and full of fun. This tour was fun, educational, and full of heart. If you want a real, local, unforgettable Bora Bora experience — Mana is your guy! 🌺✨
Amazing.

5.00Great 4x4 excursion with Nono! It was really a great experience: beautiful spots, full of exciting stories about the island, and an extremely cultured guide. Nono takes the time to explain, share and pass on. In addition, he made me discover and taste lots of local fruits, it was too good and super authentic. I recommend 100%, a real moment of discovery and sharing. Thanks again!
